Coming out of the scarlet gourd space, the mark on Su Mian’s palm had gradually faded, but she clearly knew that she had established a subtle connection with the scarlet jade gourd space. She could enter the gourd space any time she wanted.

“Su Mian, are you going to the library for self-study today?” Yue Wanjun shouted kindly from outside the door.

Su Mian didn’t make a sound until she heard Yue Wanjun closing the door and going out. Then she opened the door and carefully put the ginseng on her table.


Such a good ginseng must have been the king of ginseng for hundreds of years. Such things couldn’t be taken by ordinary people.

Su Mian thought about it and called Bai Xi.

“Su Mian? Why are you looking for me?” When Bai Xi received the call, she was shocked and almost dropped the phone.

“Bai Xi, I need your help. I want to sell a valuable item. Do you have a way?” Su Mian asked in a low voice.

Bai Xi was a loyal person, plus her family background was good, she never schemed against people before. She was typically a silly sweet girl, and she was the only person she could rely on at present.

“Valuable things? How valuable? Don’t look for me for things under a million, my doorway starts from tens of millions.”

Bai Xi couldn’t help her lips from raising. Hum, Su Mian had time to ask her for help.

“A million starts, do you have a door to the auction?”

“huh, auction?” Bai Xi was taken aback. Su Mian actually had millions of valuable things to start with? Millions were a lot for ordinary people, but she really didn’t have a way to auction.


“Yes, you give me three days, I’ll take care of it for you.”


Bai Xi gritted her teeth, she couldn’t let Su Mian look down on her.

“Okay, thank you. I will pay you back,” Su Mian said with a smile.

“Who wants you to pay them back. It’s a small matter. I am only helping you out of pity,” Bai Xi said with a little smugness.

Su Mian smiled slightly, seeing the indifference and cruelty of human nature in doomsday, thinking of her expression when she said this, somehow she sounded a bit cute.

“Okay, we’ll meet up and talk.”

Su Mian hung up the phone, then quickly took out a pen and paper.

In the early days of doomsdays, many people died not from high temperatures, but from famine. Food was of paramount importance then.

She rented a self-service mini warehouse directly on the platform, and then started the first batch of online shopping according to the list: rice, milk powder, vinegar, tea, sugar, honey, and alcohol.

These were foods with a very long shelf-life. If the storage conditions were good, they could be stored for ten years without being damaged. As for alcohol, it didn’t have shelf-life.

These seemingly ordinary stuff were extremely scarce in the doomsday. 1,000 pounds of rice, 100 cans of milk powder, 100 pounds of spices, 100 bottles of vodka and other kinds of alcohol, plus a storage tank for storage, totaled 35,000 Yuan.

Su Mian filled the address into the mini warehouse address. Seeing that half of her savings were lost in an instant, she didn’t feel any pain at all. When the ginseng got sold, she would continue to buy food and store it. These money were waste paper in the end, and the materials were the real things.

After purchasing the first batch of supplies, Su Mian felt hungry and went to the noodle restaurant near her school.


“Boss, a bowl of braised beef noodles, and braised eggs.”

“Okay.”

Su Mian found a corner and sat down.

【Have you seen the forum? A lot of strange things happened recently. There are typhoons with golden rain in the East, red snow in the north, thunder and lightning all night in the south, and forest fires in the West. There is natural disaster everywhere.】

【I saw it, many people said that something will happen. 】

【Many people said that the end is coming. 】

【Shh, don’t talk nonsense, maybe it’s an alien invasion. 】

The noodle shop was full of students, everyone gathered to discuss the phenomenon.

Su Mian opened the most well known forum in China and found many posts on doomsday. Many people had a hunch about the coming crisis. In fact, after the end of the world, the major hidden families had come out of the mountain. The government quickly controlled the disaster and established various security bases.

Compared with the tragic western countries, China’s situation was the best.

When she thought about it, Su Mian was even more cautious. She decided to go back to her hometown after finishing the suspension formalities on Monday and selling the ginseng.

Hand-made ramen, tumbling beef soup, and crispy chunks of beef, red chili oil and green onions, Su Mian took a big mouthful and squinted happily. She hadn’t eaten beef ramen for three years.

She decided to store some flour and beef after she went back to her hometown.

After eating the ramen, Su Mian didn’t delay, and glanced at the Hua University students who spent leisurely weekends. Then she took the subway to the nearest agricultural trade wholesale market.

The farmers market was full of people. Su Mian bought the seeds of watermelon, grapes, strawberry and other seeds, and the store gave her a set of tools for planting.

Su Mian returned with a large backpack carrying the seeds.

In the doomsdays, if food was a necessity, then fruit was a luxury, and she had to try whether she could grow it or not.
